<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I don't know if this is what
you're trying to do, but I think that
<br>its possible to mount one of the disks as /usr and the other as /usr/home.
<br>Just make sure that the /usr disk is listed in /etc/fstab before the
<br>/usr/home disk.&nbsp; Alternatively, you could mount one at /usr and
the other
<br>at /home and then link /usr/home to /home.
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Is that what you were looking
for?

<p><br>Ummm cant he simply create a partition on each disk, and use ccd
to make them appear as one then mount that under /usr ????
<p>this would give him both disks, seen as one volumn mounted under /usr
equaling lotsa space
